Thanks so much! This all makes perfect sense.

But is it really different in practice? From what I understand, more compression gives more sustain... So it seems to me that you could just as easily call the sustain knob a compression knob. What is the slightly different purpose you speak of?

Wait... now rethinking it... Are you saying the threshold actually gets reduced (e.g., from 40 db to 20 db)?

Aaah thank you. Appreciate it.

Thanks so much for this. Very helpful. One question: I understand what the threshold and ratio are on typical compressor pedals, but I'm not quite getting what the guy means when he says that the sustain control is actually "preamplification into the pedal to effect how hard you’re hitting the...

In the past for reverb I typically just used the reverb on my amplifier (Fender Deluxe Reverb), but recently I got a Roland Space Echo RE-20 to try some reverb with that. And the sound I'm getting from it makes me throughly confused... The following applies regardless of whether I have any of...

I'm trying to incorporate my Boss Compression-Sustainer CS-3 pedal into my effects chain for my guitar playing more and more, but it still confuses me in certain respects... I think the main question is as follows: so the pedal has four knobs (level, attack, tone, and sustain)... Is the pedal...

Makes sense, thank you!

Oh wow, you're right! Thank you!

Thank you! This is awesome.

Hey all, So I'm playing a song. For part 1 of the song, I have an effects chain of two analog pedals (guitar goes into compressor pedal which feeds into distortion pedal which feeds into amplifier). Then for part 2 of the song I use my HX Stomp (Guitar into HX Stomp into amplifier). So...

Thanks so much for the reply! I don't hear anything coming from over there; so definitely making me feel a lot better about this!

Excellent, thanks so much. Thanks so much! that's reassuring to hear. Walls above are neighbors in my own building. I've already talked to them. So no issue with them.

I'd frankly prefer not to because it's a totally different building and I don't want to even draw attention to it if I don't have to. I edited my question to just ask about the other basement apartment as I'm pretty sure the other floors can't hear anything or don't hear much if they do. What's...

I'm in a basement apartment of my several story townhouse apartment building. The next building over (also a a several story townhouse apartment building the same height as our's) also has a basement apartment. The two buildings touch and so the other basement apartment is directly next to mine...

I'm

Excellent idea, thank you!!

Thank you, very helpful!! Will do.

Thanks for your reply. Honestly, I think I'm getting hung up on the fact that it's called a "practice" amp. I've never really cranked it up before (which I was planning to do tomorrow and thought I would ask the question in the mean time)... and so you're probably right that it gets loud enough...
